Description — Venus Optics 65mm T2.4 1.5x S35 Anamorphic
The Venus Optics Laowa Nanomorph 65mm T2.4 is a dedicated anamorphic prime lens for the Fujifilm X mount, engineered for Super 35 format cinema and video production. With a T2.4 maximum aperture, the lens handles low-light scenarios competently while still giving operators meaningful control over depth of field. The 65mm focal length falls in the telephoto range, making it a strong choice for character-focused shots, close-ups, and scenes requiring compression.
This is a manual focus prime with no autofocus and no image stabilization, placing it firmly in the hands-on cinema workflow where deliberate, controlled operation is the norm. A 62mm filter thread keeps front filtration simple and accessible. The lens weighs 830g, giving it a solid, cinema-appropriate feel.
The Blue Flare variant of this lens produces the characteristic horizontal anamorphic flares in blue, contributing a cinematic look that many narrative and commercial filmmakers seek from anamorphic glass. Its Prime configuration and Cinema / Video camera system designation make it a purpose-built tool for serious moving image work on Fuji X system cameras.
